Forest_ 40 Report post Posted September 8, 2017 6 hours ago, thepparker said: Players will now only be able to queue for Battlegrounds in smaller groups There was no community input on this. Now if I want to queue up with my guild and have some fun I just can't? This entire post is going to be overshadowed by the fact that you guys made a huge BG change without asking for community input first. Create a poll on the forums and let people vote on it at least. Backlash is coming on this, you'll need to revert soon. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Report post Posted September 8, 2017 Lots of great fixes present, always glad to see the results of staff and open source developers. 6 hours ago, thepparker said: Players will now only be able to queue for Battlegrounds in smaller groups A change like this should have been prefixed with an announcement/explanation post well before being slapped on top of a normal update cycle. It's controversial in nature and going this route just reinforces the negative controversy cycle when it comes to how aloof decision-making is with the project's leadership. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guardian452 1 Report post Posted September 8, 2017 Quote As a preface, these notes currently only apply to Anathema. Elysium and Darrowshire will be updated later today. So does that mean that mean that Elysium and Darrowshire are jumping straight to 1.11 as well?

reagan 6 Report post Posted September 8, 2017 Nice patch again! Heh - brave decision on premading, will be interesting to see if it brings players back to PvP. I know my friends and I all quit because we couldnt PvP, it was worthless to try. Expecting to see 20-30 people viciously attack the project over this change. Mind you, if you stop for a second it doesnt stop you from pvping, or from ranking it just makes it harder for you to game the system and honor farm empty BG's. You argue its not blizz like change, i argue the whole way the player base plays isnt bliz like. Speed running BWL (an instance that took 4-6 hours for guilds on retail) in 23 minutes isnt bliz like. Killing bosses in <30 seconds isnt bliz like. Farming 2-6 Million honor isnt bliz like. Nothing will ever be "Bliz like" because of the player knowledge of whats coming, and of how best to game the system. Enjoy the damn game and stop bitching at a group that does this for free. Want full R14 gear? compile your own server and give it to yourself. Want to play the game and actually PvP? then stop premading and have some fun for a change. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stop being quitter losers and perhaps try to improve. Quote You argue its not blizz like change, i argue the whole way the player base plays isnt bliz like.

The game stays the same but player skill and tactics have improved. Just like football the rules are the same but the players are better than 30 years ago, no one complains its not football anymore though, they havent made the goals smaller because players are better. The fact that you mention 2-6 million just proves you don't know what your talking about.

Want to play the game and actually PvP? then stop premading and have some fun for a change. 3v3 or 10v10 is still Player vs Player do you understand? We do enjoy the game but people keep whining and trying to change it, P.S premading actually is fun. You should try and play the game within the system designed by Blizzard, rather than bitching and moaning and demanding that the system is changed because you can't compete. The pserver devs and blizzard themselves seem to give in to players like you to the detriment of everyone else. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
